Texas A&M at UCLA Game Thread (aka The Hot Seat Bowl)

[Bodhisattva]

For everyone that didn't see this during the game...

swaggie gonna swaggie

I saw this during the game and just shook my head. I don't care for the showboating. But, if you're going to do it you better back it up ..... for the entire game.

Agree on Mizzou, but I'm happy we added aTm. Lot of money and a cult mentality came with them............

FIFY.

IOW, just like API, but with more $$$$$. :biggrin2:

(You should have seen this one coming, bub. You left a gaping hole a blind old coot can drive a truck through.)

A&M and Mizzou do not belong in the SEC.

I don't mind A&M so much, but I'd drop Mizzou in a heartbeat if i was conference chancellor for a day. They are a cancer of a school as far as I am concerned, and they certainly have no business being in the "East". They have zero relationship to any schools in the conference with the exception of Arky and, of course, aTm. ESPN tries to make South Carolina their rival in broadcasts, presumably because both capitals are "Columbia". That is how lame it is.

I absolutely agree with this. I'd drop Mizzou and pick up VA tech, Clemson, Or West Virginia. Any of those teams feel like an SEC fan base more than Mizzou.

The band called - they want their baton back.

When Missouri plays South Carolina, I call it the "We're only In the SEC because they needed a warm body to stay at an even number" Bowl.

And the conference would be worse for it... I agree with the notion that Virginia Tech and West Virginia seem more like SEC schools, but mark my words, you replace South Carolina and Missouri with those schools and the result will not be a desirable one.

I've about gotten used to USC and Arkansas being in the SEC. Texas AM is starting to grow on me; Missouri not at all.

I can see that you have never been to Morgantown.

First, you fly into Pittsburgh. And then you get on a bus................

LOL, people have been saying that about A&M for decades, yet...

True, but getting away from UT and the Big 12 changed the dynamics a bit.

Yeah, Sumlin just ain't gonna get them there.
He's a good mid-major coach but he can't cut it as a head coach in a major conference.

I listened to Sumlin's radio show last night, no callers or questions from BBQ joint crowd, none solicited, not even a call in number announced. Mighty somber show.

Has anyone seen the article about the hate letter sent to Coach Sumlin's residence?

I just saw it. It is sad and disgusting. It is just a game.

Absolutely, utterly, pathetically despicable.
